<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is:

The only operations that could be used to solve the system using addition are the first and the third operation.

<h2>Why?</h2>

To solve the problem, we need to check and discard each of the given option to see if the operations works to solve the system using addition, so, trying the given options.

The system of equation is:

x+y=7\\12x+y=5

We can see that the only way to solve the system using addition, is multiplying the first or the second equation by -1, so, we can eliminate the variable "y", let's prove that:

- First operation: Multiplying<u> the first equation</u> by -1 and add the equations together,

x+y=7\\12x+y=5

x*(-1)+y*(-1)=7*(-1)\\12x+y=5

-x+-y=-7\\12x+y=5

Adding the equations, we have:

12x-x+y-y=5-7

11x+=5-7

11x+=-2

x=-\frac{2}{11}

We can see that we can solve the problem using the first operation the operation.

- Third operation: Multiplying <u>the second equation</u> by -1 and add the equations together,

x+y=7\\12x+y=5

x+y=7\\12x*(-1)+y*(-1)=5*(-1)

x+y=7\\-12x+-y=-5

Adding the equations we have:

-12x+x+y-y=-5+7

-11x=2

x=-\frac{2}{11}

We can see that we can solve the problem using the third operation.

Also, we can see that in both equations the variable "y" has the same coefficient, the only operations that could work to solve the system using addition are the first and the third operation.

Have a nice day!

Katniss’s first reaction when she hears the news about the rule change is to call out Peeta’s name, despite the dangers of alert
Airida [17]

Answer:

<em>Katniss has said in both The Hunger Games and Catching Fire that she does not know how she feels for him. So there is the evidence for that, and, in other times during Catching Fire, she has deeply wanted Peeta to lay with her at night. Majority, almost all of the time, it was for comfort from her nightmares. But, also, sort of near the end in Catching Fire, in the Hunger Games with the victors, Peeta had massaged a tense spot in her shoulders, and she relaxed. There is many areas in the first two books that shows she does truly love Peeta, but there are also other times that she shows she would rather be with Gale. But, I have seen much more of her loving Peeta rather then Gale. She admitted in book one not all of the love for Peeta was fake. I think that is evidence as to why I think there is more to it then her wanting to seek him out for District twelves forgiveness. </em>

Explanation: Hope this helps..
